Find Your Happiness

We were so happy that my husband's leave was timed perfectly that we were able to go to the Indiana State Fair this year. As always, we had a great time with family and friends, feeding and petting the animals, and eating the I-don't-even-want-to-think-how-much-calories-is-in-this foods. This year, one of the foods to try is the Glazed Doughnut Burger and my husband was spontaneous enough to try this weird concoction.  I still have yet to master the multi-tasking like my husband! :)  Two glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnuts acting as a bun. You can add whatever condiments you like but Dean only chose to add bacon and cheese for his "burger." According to my husband, it actually tasted pretty good. The saltiness of the bacon balanced out the sweetness of the doughnuts. By the way, this doughnut burger cost $8. I was going to try the other must-try food of the fair this year, which was deep-fried butter. The news article that I read compared it to the taste...

In less than two weeks, all three of us are going to Indiana for nine days. I am very, very excited since my husband is joining us this time and it has been more than a year since he had been home. But I'm even more excited because Indiana's State Fair is going on right now! Dean and his family have been going since he was a little boy and this year would be my fifth time. Indiana State Fair has the sweetest corn, cream -iest milkshake, and yummy -est cheese I've ever had--and all are made from local produce! If I'm brave enough, I might even try the weird foods they are serving this year, which are doughnut burger (burger served between two Krispy Kremes) and deep-fried butter (frozen cubed butter with cinnamon and covered in funnel cake batter). I don't know how long Nathaniel and I will be able to stay because he will not fully appreciate it all yet and the heat won't help but I'm sure we are going to have a great time.
